A glowing recommendation
Thompson Falls | Hagadone News Network | UPDATED 15 years, 1 month AGO
Since August 2007, I have presided over Justice Court in Sanders County. Previously, I had been in law enforcement for over 30 years, in both urban and rural areas. In my experience on both sides, it would be extremely difficult to perform the job of Justice of the Peace without a law enforcement or judicial background. Having conferred with Judge Wanda James on complicated or technical issues that I have faced in Sanders County Court, I can attest to her knowledge of the judicial system and her professionalism. Keep the knowledge, professionalism and experience of Judge Wanda James in Mineral County. You have invested your money in Judge James’ training, continued education and community programs for 15 years. A vote for Judge Wanda James is an ongoing commitment to professionalism and experience in Mineral County.

The stakes are too high for the state to rush a decision on water rights
Some say it will utterly destroy farming, ranching, lives, and land values in northwestern Montana. Others argue there’s nothing to fear in the massive Salish-Kootenai water rights compact. Both sides agree the economic implications are perhaps the largest we will see in our lifetime. But there is strong disagreement over whether those outcomes will be good or bad.
Share records
Billy Hill’s most recent campaign brochure states, “Billy has a proven record of accomplishment as a military noncommissioned officer, Korea and Vietnam...” Review of Billy Hill campaign material and interviews published in local newspapers throughout his numerous campaigns for sheriff show a number of references to his tour of duty in Korea.
Importance of coordination
In the Sanders County Ledger, one Doug Ferrell commented on Ron Olfert’s pro-coordination article. Mr. Ferrell’s long-winded comments about “coordination” missed the whole point of the process. Or he never attended the meetings that were held at which County Commissioners promised to send letters demanding coordination; or if he did, chose to not listen, or is merely a plant to denigrate Ron Olfert and those who seek to limit Federal and State involvement in deciding the fates of local economics.
